I have the entire Backoffice Server suite which includes Proxy server 2.0.
Shouldn't IP forwarding work without using this software though?

just for the record... are you aware you need special software for that?
like sygate, wingate, winproxy, ... ?

that looks correct BUT why have you taken the 172.16 range? the netmask
should be smth different, though that isnt the problem. Why dont you
take 192.168.1.1 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0

extra software?
